I bullied him back when he was in the closet/a girl in high school for being nerdy. As we grew up, we became friends and I discovered he was a guy now. He’s pretty cool :)

      I mean, I’ve talked to him in high school about how he was so annoying and I defended people who bullied him, but since then, we haven’t talked about that. I don’t like engaging in deep discussion, unfortunately

          Definitely not. Even if I thought he was annoying due to his autism and such, I grew up and it’s definitely not his fault how I chose to react to his autism

            That’s good! The last answer kind of sounded like that was the case. What do you guys connect or bond over now? And how did you reconnect with him or how did find out that he was into one of your interests and start getting together?
